Connections arrivals and approaches

[manvanmelle]

Hi everybody,

I’m trying to do a flight from OMDB to OTHH, but i can’t seem to connect the approach with the arrival. Any ideas on how that works? I’m new to flight simming btw.

Thanks in advance,
Kind regards,

Hi,
when you compare the charts, you see that the STAR ends with VECTORs and therefore no direct connection between the STAR and the approach. In other words, you must fly this “connection” by yourself (in real life via ATC instructions = vector)

The arrows means VECTOR:

Hope that helps,
Richard

Hi Richard,

Thanks for responding so quickly. That explains.

Is there a short simple explenation for why this is done; having to flying these connections manually?

No, sorry - possible due separation (high traffic) or similar else. This is determined by the respective country/airport. Sorry.

Cheers,
Richard
